Ok,
Now that efs has a online store im going to finally upgrade my rear springs.
Question is do i get

Rear Leaf Springs SUZ-05E 2 Constant 80 kg to GVM ----50mm lift

OR:

Rear Leaf Springs SUZ-05E 2 Comfort - Up to Constant 60 kg. ------65mm lift



So are the 65mm lift springs softer? Does anyone know which spring is longer?

Im after the longest/softest spring they have. Ive sent a email to them but im impatient and maybe somebody already knows the answer

Is it worth the few extra dollars to go EFS over OME?

Hell yes!

Its like saying is it worth the extra few dollars to buy a house over a jumping castle! :P



The comfort springs will most likely have the little plastic slip pads in them, the others will not. All my EFS rears have had the slip pads in them.

To have the lift you generally need the higher spring rate, thus a reduction in comfort. With all the EFS springs Ive had a play with needed quite a few leafs removed. Straight from the factory the lift was huge but you may as well have had no shocks at all, they were stiff they barely moved at all!

So you have had both the 50 and 65mm lifted ones? I have seen your build thread which were they?
